Abstract
This project endeavors to support pilgrims, health volunteers, and paramedics through the implementation of an application named MYPARAMEDIC, seamlessly integrated with a smart bracelet for real-time vital signs monitoring. The Hajj season poses challenges for paramedics, including a high patient volume, overcrowding, and a lack of official channels to report critical cases, increasing the risk to patients' lives. The MYPARAMEDIC application is intricately linked to a smart bracelet that continuously records vital signs. In the event of a patient's vital signs exceeding the normal range, the bracelet promptly notifies paramedics via the app, providing the patient's location along with the vital sign details. MYPARAMEDIC also incorporates an artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot for medical advice, a manual alert feature allowing pilgrims to request paramedic assistance, and information about nearby health centers. This comprehensive solution aims to alleviate the burden on paramedics, facilitate quick patient diagnosis, and enhance overall safety during the pilgrimage.
